基本が何に繋がっているか実感出来る稽古を心がける what the basics are connected to.

子どもたちに「なぜ学校で6時間以上も国語や算数、理科、歴史を勉強するの？」と聞かれて、大人が「将来のためだよ」と言っても、子どもたちには響きませんね。
そこで、「どう伝えたらいいか」と考え「好きなロボットを作りたいと思ったら、何から始めればいい？」「うーん、どんな形になるか描いて、特別なスキルを考えるかな」「次はどんな材料を使う？買うの？」「うーん、大きいと重くて部屋で場所を取るからダンボールを使う。ママとパパはAmazonで買うから、ダンボールはいつもあるからそれを使う♪」
「ほら、君は想像して、描いて、測って、目標を達成するための方法を考えてるじゃないか♪問題があったときに、それを解決するための最善の方法を考え、道のりを工夫する能力を養うために学んでいるんじゃないかな♪」
道場で生徒たちに教えるときも同じで 「基本が大切だよ」と言っても完全には伝わりません。だから、基本が何に繋がっているのかを実感してもらえるような稽古を私は心がけています。
Good morning.
It's a beautiful sunny day again this morning.
When children ask us, "Why do we spend more than six hours at school studying Japanese, math, literacy, and history?" and we adults say, "It's for your future," it doesn't resonate with them.
So I thought, "How can I convey this to them?" "If you want to make a robot you like, where do you start?" "Hmm, I guess I'd draw what it would look like and think about its special skills." "Next, what materials will you use? Do you buy them?" "Hmm, if it's big, it's heavy and takes up space in the room, so I use cardboard. Mom and Dad shop on Amazon, so I always have cardboard around ♪"
“Look, you are imagining, drawing, measuring, and thinking of ways to achieve your goals. When you have a problem, you are learning to develop the ability to think about the best way to solve it and to devise a process.”
It's the same when I teach my students at the dojo. Even if I tell them "the basics are important," it doesn't fully get through to them. That's why I try to train in a way that allows them to feel and realize what the basics are connected to.
I will enjoy my day so that I can bring smiles and a fulfilling time to my students this week as well.

ご視聴だけでなく、コメントも送って下さりありがとうございます。武の道を究めるため稽古をされている先生からのお言葉は身に余る光栄です。
剣術や柔術に繋がる和道流に私は魅せられており、研究したり想像したり、仮説を立て実験し、気づいたり発見出来ることに大きな意義を感じております。
これからも投稿を続けて参りますので、お時間ある時に引き続きご視聴頂けたら嬉しいです。
